Plan Unclear at time of survey as interior not inspected but the asymmetry of the front elevation and the entrance into a passage suggests a pre C18 arrangement. Principal rooms in the main range ; service wing adjoining at rear right and projecting beyond main range to the right under a parallel roofline. Exterior 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4 bay front with regular fenestration and a moulded eaves cornice; panelled front door to right of centre with rectangular fanlight with glazing bars, pilasters and an entablature. 12-pane front door, other windows tripartite sashes, 12 pane in the centre and 4 pane to the outer lights ; all windows with wide timber lintels. The right return of the main range has 2 C20 glazed doors and double hung sashes. The front elevation of the wing has 1 ground and 1 first floor tripartite sash, similar to these of the front elevation of the main range and a probably C20 ground floor 12-pane sash. Interior Not inspected but features of interest may survive. The house is slightly set back from the road with a low local volcanic stone garden wail with square section gate piers with chamfered caps both to the path leading to the front door and a carriage entrance to the right of the house. The former gateway retains its iron overthrow. A gentleman's house in Silver Street, forming a good group with Thorverton, Apple Garth and West Barton (q.v.).
